Mabel's POV

After Dipper told us the plan, we started debating on when we should go out.

"I'm telling you, if we wait 'till tomorrow Bill could enslave us by then!" Dipper was explaining.

Grunkle Stan was against it though.

"Kid, your in a wheelchair. So how about we either wait until tomorrow morning to go to the River, or me, your sister and Wendy could go get the water and bring it back here."

I gotta admit, that was a pretty good plan.

"But Grunkle Stan! I wanna help!"

"You can help us all by staying right here."

Dipper than pulled out his usual cross-sterny face. Which Grunkle Stan countered with an even-more-stern face.

Dippers POV

Well that didn't work. Time for plan B.

Man, I've been saving this for a very special occasion.

Time to pull a Mabel.

I putt my lip out, and widen my eyes by like, a million percent. I also start to tear up, for dramatic effect.

The total probability of Grunkle Stan falling for this is about- 87%. C'mon physics, don't fail me now!

Mabel's POV

Oh wow. He's desperate. The last time he tried this was when he convinced Dad to let him get a chemistry set for our Birthday. In 4th grade. Dad was 1000000000000% against it. Until Dipper did the face. Seriously this face is magical. If you think I'm cute, your right. But Dip Dot is 10x cuter with that face.

Stan don't fall for it!!

Dippers POV

"Kid, I'm not falling for it." Stan stated.

"*snif* Please."

"No! Its not safe for you in your condition!"

"*snif*"

"I said no. Now stop being so, so-"

"Adorable?" Mabel asked.

"Mable-y"

I could see him starting to sweat. He's breaking!

I widened my eyes more.

Mabel's POV

So far, Stan was holding strong.

Except for the fact that he's intensely sweating. And breaking under pressure.

"FINE!! NOW STOP GUILT TRIPPING ME!! "

Dippers face returned to normal.

"Whoop whoop!" I high-fived him. Than whispered. "Dude you have to teach me that later."

"Anytime. Now let's GO GET SOME WATER!"

*Warning the following part of the chapter contains lots of puns.*

Dippers POV

We headed outside towards the River. Mabel was pushing my wheelchair, while Soos was walking next to us, and Wendy was clearing a path. Stan was also up ahead, leading the way.

I was sitting in the wheelchair, thinking about the consequences of doing this.

"Water you thinking about?" Mabel asked.

"Did you just- never mind. I'm thinking about what will happen after this."

"You mean like, what Bill is doing?"
